Rainy day on tap across northern Ohio with a risk for some severe storms to develop

A warm front is expected to bring showers and even a few isolated storms across northern Ohio.

The National Weather Service says there's a chance some of those storms could be severe Tuesday afternoon.

The biggest risk is gusty winds.

Depending on how much cloud cover there is on Tuesday will determine just how robust the storms are this afternoon.

The biggest risk of severe storms is along U.S. Route 30 and south.

Things are expected to dry out on Thursday before a chance of showers returns for the weekend.
